Letter To Someone In The Sixties

23 Raysmall Drive

Papakura, New ZEaland

Dear Actor,

I am from the future and i am curious about the sixties, I have noticed a few things like the tye dye shirts, what you wore and the mod and hippie movement I have also noticed about the different types of music.

I have a few questions about the sixties like why did they have a mod and hippie movement? And why did you have weird names for shirts,shoes and other stuff?

For the last question I would like to know who was the most famous person in both the mod and hippie movement?

Yours sincerely,

Zac

Why Animals Should Be Kept In Captivity

WHY  ANIMALS SHOULD BE KEPT IN CAPTIVITY!

What do you think, animals should or shouldn't be kept in captivity. I'm going to tell you why I think they should be kept in captivity.

First of all they're habitats are being destroyed and they have nowhere else to live, more than 50% of animals homes(forests)  have been destroyed by getting cut down by us and the percentage is going down 10% faster than it can be regrown.

Secondly, animals that are endangered might go extinct because of us and they need new places to live, in fact in the past two decades 11 animals have gone extinct because of us.

Thirdly animals have less of a chance of being killed by predators because they will be in a safe environment, almost all animals have at least one natural predator  and if they are endangered they could all get extinct by being killed.

The fourth and last reason is for us to see them! And also to inform us about them and we can see them and to educate us about why and how we should protect them from poachers and predators.

Now that you have heard me I strongly believe that you should think about what I have said and help animals to captivity.

This week My class was learning about 60's dances and my group had the monster mash. It had about four steps that were quite easy. we first had to research it and then practice and preform it. The video is right here for you to watch.

60's Fashion Making

60's Fashion Making

(NO PHOTO OF ME) WHY?

For our topic The Arts Through The Decades we had to make a suit from the sixties,

We had to design an outfit from the sixties  and then had to make it on someone out of 2 meters of tape newspaper and two scissors.

We designed it with a shirt with a collar and pants with flares and glasses(we didn't use) because that  is what they wore in the sixties

The flares didn't work out but the shirt kinda did the shirt had a collar which was uncomfortable and arm pockets that fell of.

Nothing worked well.

If I do it again i'll use less tape and less newspaper for things.
